There are plasterers and there are PLASTERERS!! Martin was amazing from start to finish. Everything was perfect from time keeping, to work to an exceptional standard, cleaning up after, what more could anyone ask. This was also followed by advice on painting our newly plastered ceiling and I will follow this to the letter. Brilliant all round service from Holt Plastering. If you need plastering done, then don’t hesitate to contact Martin. Thank you very much.

Martin is very professional and reliable, we've used his services twice and he did a brilliant job.
Verified by CheckatradeKitchen and utility walls and ceilings
Martin has done an excellent job at our kitchen and utility rooms. Walls and ceilings were really bad following an extensive rewire and old tiles being taken out. He's done a remarkable job, and the rooms look amazing now. All this happened in 30 degrees heat and us being around- he was here everyday at 9am, working to his high standards all day. On top of that he is an all round nice person so I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs his services.

Martin was easy to contact, always replied promptly and worked with us and other trades to get work completed. Worked very hard, was clean and tidy worker and very friendly. We were so pleased with his work, we asked him to come and do another room in our house. We really would recommend Martin to anyone needing a plasterer.
